Abstract: The capacitated electric vehicle routing problem (CEVRP) has drawn much attention from researchers in the recent decade against the background of the rising electric transportation industry.

In humans, social complexity usually involves clear governance hierarchies, with leaders and middle managers directing our ...

This project is an educational and research-oriented implementation that benchmarks and compares different metaheuristic algorithms for solving VRPTW problems. The VRPTW is a classic NP-hard ...

This behavior has inspired algorithms used in computer science and logistics, often called ant colony optimization. These algorithms help solve problems like routing delivery trucks, scheduling ...

A few months ago, I awoke to find a streak spanning the length of my kitchen wall that looked like it had been drawn there with thick black crayon. This was confounding, given that I live alone, save ...

Abstract: Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks can provide wider service coverage and lower latency than traditional terrestrial networks, which have attracted considerable attention. However, the ...

Go program that implements max flow and Dijkstra's algorithms to find the fastest way to move N amount of ants from the room A to the room B aka solve ants colony optimization problem Go library and ...

Ant pupae that are fatally sick don’t hide their condition; instead, they release a special scent that warns the rest of the colony. This signal prompts worker ants to open the pupae’s cocoons and ...

Sick young ants release a smell to tell worker ants to destroy them to protect the colony from infection, scientists said Tuesday, adding that queens do not seem to commit this act of self-sacrifice.

New research shows that terminally ill baby ants tell other ants to kill them, potentially protecting the rest of the colony from their infection. In a study published today in the journal Nature ...

Biologist E.O. Wilson once wrote that "ants are the most warlike of all animals," noting that clashes between ant colonies dwarfed the human battles at Waterloo and Gettysburg. But sometimes ant ...
